Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RistoCat at none against Chess Puzzles's 1. RistoCat also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly) and review sentiment (100% vs 91%). Chess Puzzles's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (38 vs 2). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
